Dog Gone Highway Blues Poem by Dorsey Baker

highway you are so long
highway you are so long
got me out here
so very
far away
from home
highway you got me
out here
going places
that I ain't
never been
highway you got me
out here
going places
that I ain't
never been
highway
I'm way out here on
the highway
and I just don't know
when I will
be coming in

highway highway
so dog gone long
highway highway
so dog
gone long
guess I'll be
traveling
this old lonesome
highway
until
I'm dead
and gone
